Chapter 525

On March 1, Microsoft announced that the company and white system reached a consensus that Microsoft would obtain the office suite and microcomputer database software of white system through equity replacement.

The two companies have been entangled for some time, and finally they will reach a consensus. No one doubts that this is a win-win situation. They will be so quick to complete the transaction, but the market did not expect.

Judging from the performance of the market, Microsoft's stock has gone up all the way. Obviously, it is extremely optimistic about this transaction.

The truth is obvious. They are all big men in their respective fields. If the two companies choose to merge, it will be a disastrous blow to their competitors.

Of course, there are still some doubts. Why doesn't William White, a local tyrant, directly acquire Microsoft? This is the most cost-effective investment. Does it mean that the money has been wasted.

For this idea, William White can only shake his head and smile bitterly. He didn't want to recruit bill, but this product is so easy to recruit. Larry Ellison would compromise, because he was born in a humble family, and he was more interested in interests.

Bill Gates, the son of a wealthy family, naturally has his pride. Even if you force the acquisition, it will not have a good result.

"Boss, we are the second largest shareholder in name. Bill is a tough guy."

"How much do we have now?"

"It's almost 20% of those that have been bought secretly."

"Well, that's it. I'm optimistic about its long-term development, short-term fluctuations, whatever."

"All right, boss."

Filson is very clear that if it wasn't for the compromise of the boss, he would not agree with the final conditions in any case.

Say, the covet of a behemoth, if others have no idea, they are basically idiots.

In fact, William White's idea is very simple. He has done too many things in the limelight. At this time, it's better to keep a low profile.

Microsoft's market value is more than one trillion. Think about it. What's Bill Gates' assets? 50 billion.

It looks like a lot. In fact, it only has about 5% shares. You know, when he released the 3.0 system, his shares were close to 50%.

To become a public listed company, you can't expect to eat alone, which is unrealistic. Not to mention that this guy doesn't have such a solid foundation, even the enterprises under William White are of a number of ways.

The United States has strict requirements for marketable shares in the market. If the shares in your hand are too concentrated, you must list them for sale. You can't keep them in your hands all the time. Especially the kind of companies that are very profitable.

Obviously, legendary world and Viking pirates all meet this standard. Even NBC and Disney have been wildly sought after by the market.

In ten or eight years, William White is very sure that his shares will only remain below 10%. This is a rule that we all must abide by and must not be broken.

Of course, you said I didn't want to be constrained. What about this?

Simply, privatisation and delisting. However, when the number of your shareholders exceeds a certain number, you still have to go public. This is not negotiable.

Then you said, I don't want other shareholders. Is there something wrong with this?

The answer is no, if you insist on not giving employees a certain amount of shares. There will be protests from the guild. The boss can be yours, but the company is not yours.

It sounds funny. How can it feel so strange.

Hehe, fundamentally speaking, it's a bit like maozi's policy. The biggest difference is that Mattel requires employees to share the benefits. Maozi asked for the interests to be handed over to the state.

"Larry, I don't want to sell microcomputer databases either, but the Justice Department is on me. You should be happy. In my opinion, oracle bone inscriptions are more important. " Although a deal was made, William White had to appease his men. For example, this Larry Ellison is a very difficult prick to deal with.

"Boss, you've done too much for that guy."

William White shook his head and wry smile: "ha ha, Larry, I don't want to, you should know, I want to buy him directly. But if you buy it, can you make peace with that guy, regardless of the Ministry of justice? "

"No way, that arrogant guy."

"Look, I know. If the two companies can't integrate, don't I fight with myself? "

"Well, I think you've convinced me, but I'll still get hold of PC business."

"Well, it's up to you. I have a low sense of presence on the Microsoft board. In fact, it is the white fund that holds this part of the assets. "

"Ha, so that's it. I said how that guy could compromise. That's right."

William White said nothing with a smile. Microsoft is booming now. It's not oracle that was on the verge of collapse in those years.

After pacifying this Silicon Valley strongman, William White was relieved. It's not easy to subdue this grumpy guy. Of course, he also showed matching results.Different from the outside rumors, William White is very polite to these guys. Not to mention those who fight with him, even guys like Larry Ellison can have a very equal dialogue.

Some people have said that in the United States, isn't that the case?

Hehe, if you want to get along well in Silicon Valley, you have to learn to flatter. The Silicon Valley of later generations is full of curry everywhere. When it comes to ability, Chinese Americans are not bad either. However, engineering dogs don't flatter. Even if some of them are good at it, they all become officials.

His subordinates like to flatter, and William White won't refuse. This is something we all like to see and hear, and no one can avoid it. But one thing, if your level is not good, it's useless to flatter. On the other hand, if you are really capable, it's normal to have a little temper.

"Here comes Mr. Philson, boss."

"Well, Suzuki, give us a cup of coffee."

"All right."

For this must have a son, William White is very speechless, brother has worked very hard, OK.

But then again, although my brother's gun is good, there seems to be something wrong with this bullet. To be honest, if he didn't have two sons, he would really like to have a check. It's a side effect of crossing.

"Boss, the price of oil is still on the decline. The think tank thinks that it may hit a ten dollar low."

"Isn't that so? Isn't the situation tense in the desert? What's the matter? Is silly big wood honest again? "

"No, the demand for oil is decreasing. At the same time, the demand for iron ore is also decreasing."

"Well, it seems that I really got involved in two bad industries. Well, if that's the case, the two companies in Turkey and Australia should not have a good life, right

"Indeed, this year's loss is a high probability event. Wall Street is not optimistic about this acquisition. "

"Ha ha, whatever they want. Are there any changes in the banks we contacted?"

"No, boss, they're not worried about your ability to pay."

"Well, I hope they're right."
